Dominican Fried Salami and Cheese

Dominican Fried Salami and Cheese

I am so excited to bring you this twist on a classic Dominican dish.
In Dominican Republic we love our fried salami and cheese. We are literally obsessed with them. Normally we will have them with “mangรบ”, which is boiled green plantains that we then mash like you would potatoes. Add a fried egg to that and you have “Mangรบ con los tres golpes”. This recipe I have shared on this blog as well. You must check it out because it is delicious!

Today, I wanted to share how you can turn the fried salami and cheese into an amazing appetizer. I created a dipping sauce to go along with it. It turned out amazing!

Now, finding this salami and cheese is not always easy. If you live in an area that has a Latin market you may find them there. But no worries, because I can’t find them where I live even in our local Latin market, so I order online. And so far so good!

I prefer Dominican brands like “Campesino” and “Higueral” for my salami and when it comes to cheese, I prefer “Tropical – Queso de Freir”. But I found an alternative brand that is quite amazingly close called El Latino and I order online from them. The brands I prefer and grew up using don’t have online shopping. But trust me, El Latino salami and cheese are as close as it gets to the originals so I am very grateful for them.

This is one of my favorite collaborations with @familiakitchencook. When browsing through their site, to choose a recipe, I came across this one. It immediately reminded me of a combination of Dominican Pollo Guisado and Dominican Spaghetti all in one. I was super intrigued and decided, this is the one! There was no turning back for this girl! Off I went! 
ย 
The end result was this beautifully light spicy sauce that complimented the chicken and pasta absolutely perfect. Although it has a similar look to my Dominican chicken and the spaghetti dish, it had a completely different flavor profile. One that I have craved and satisfied many times since.
